The World's First Fine Art NFT and Insta-Poet Arch Hades

Arch Hades, from London,  sold an NFT (sometimes pronounce nifties) poem, titled Arcadia, selling for more $525,00 at Christie's New York. Her first book, 'High Tide', was in the international best seller list in 2019. At present, she is the highest paid contemporary poet. 

A list of Books  highly recommended by Arch Hades:

Joseph Brodsky – Uncommon Visage 

A stunning essay about aesthetics that won him the Nobel Prize for Literature, and he deserves it. 

W Somerset Maugham – The Painted Veil 

Maugham was the highest paid author of his time and I get why. The way he captures emotional evolution within each character is stunning. 

Ivan Turgenev – First Love  

An enchanting description of a boy falling in love for the first time, with a tragic end, typical of first love. 

Kurt Vonnegut – Slaughterhouse 5 

The most interesting depiction of time and human life within it. 

For poetry, she recommended Rumi, among many.
